The Master Thangtong Gyalpo is supposed to have entered the earth in the "way of Padmasambhava" as a conjoined emanation of Chenrezig and his vengeful form, Tamdrin, during the Wood Ox Year (1384) in the town of Rinchen Ding. He was a well-known Tibetan Siddha who traveled far throughout Tibet, China, and other eastern nations. He also constructed countless temples, metal bridges, and monasteries in Dergé and other places. Thangtong Gyalpo, the moniker he goes by, means "King of the Empty Plain." He had a vision of five dakinis who came to him and sang poems of adoration while meditating on the Gyede Plain in Tsang.
